Chris' Russians v. Jim's Germans.
An attacker/defender scenario with the German infantry & anti-tank dug in on the table at the start with panzers coming to the rescue some time after turn 3. The Russian objectives are the crossroads & the bridge. The Germans are Veterans. The Russians are Inexperienced, but Fearless.
Another play test of our house rules for WWII 15mm figs.
The Russians are attacking from the far edge.
The Russians advance with armour on their right & infantry on their left.
On the near flank the T34/76's have over-run the anti-tank gun & deployed in the wood to take on the Panzers as they come on. In the centre the T34/85s are whittling down the German infantry, but also taking losses from anti-tank. The Russian infantry are closing on the German infantry defending the bridge.
The T35/76's have been destroyed by the Stugs. The T34/85s have taken the village, but the MkIVs are counterattacking. The Russian infantry have moved up within assault range of the infantry defending the bridge.
It's all over for the Russians, their infantry have been mown down by German fire & their surviving tanks are facing too many panzers.
The game might have been a bit unbalanced in the German's favour given their defensive advantage. Maybe we over-compensated after the Russians won last time. The rules played well, except this was our first try at armour v infantry & that aspect needs some more work.
